Description
Steve Sweeney was born in East Boston, Mass., USA. He is an actor, known for Back to School (1986), Me, Myself & Irene (2000) and The Equalizer (2014).
During the early 1970s, a group of Boston comedians regularly performed at a comedy club started by Martin Olson and Barry Crimmins in a back room of Ding-Ho, a Chinese Restaurant near Inman Square in Cambridge, MA. The group included Don Gavin, Lenny Clarke, Kevin Meaney, Jay Leno, Bobcat Goldthwait, Bill Sohonage, and Steven Wright.[2][3]
Sweeney became known for his use of dialects and commentary on the New England political scene in his act. Sweeney had a role on Park Street Under, a Boston-based sitcom which has been cited as a potential inspiration for successful television show Cheers.[4] He has appeared on shows such as the Late Show with David Letterman, Evening at The Improv, and Comics Come Home.[5] Sweeney has also appeared in over 20 films,[5] including Rodney Dangerfield's Back to School, Judd Apatow's Celtic Pride, and There's Something About Mary with Ben Stiller.[6]
